    Coupe "Upgrade"

    My silver 216SE Coupe Auto is great little car, but will need a bit of money spent to keep tip top. Drives brilliantly and still looks the biz, but just needs a bit of TLC. Having got the Tomcat bug as my every other day daily driver, I have hankered after a manual and always liked the...

    What a dipstick!

    Be very careful when some well meaning person starts saying nice things about your pride and joy when you are doing your pre/mid flight checks at a petrol station. There I was checking oil, (Gentlman in Silver Astra - You don't see many of those these days. I said you don't see many of those...

    How many classic Rovers does any enthusiast actually need?

    No matter what your current ownership, the answer is always N+1 - where N = the number of classic Rovers currently owned. There is always room for one more!

    Another Rover Mot'd. The P6 went for its first MOT since I bought it. Passed no issues but advised one front calliper is slightly sticky, all three Rovers now ticketed for the rest of 2014 and two of them into 2015.

    Now have a P6 again!

    Viewed, test drove, paid for and brought home a lovely early S2 2000 today. Have been looking for a P6 to join the stable ever since I bought the SD1 to replace the sad loss of LDD. (The SD1 has not been without its issues - which until 30 minutes ago I thought were finally resolved, but it...

    Ultimate SD1 V8 Overheating test

    Very pleased with the cooling on my car today. Got stuck in the M25/A3 lash up this evening and took an hour and quarter to crawl stop start one mile in blazing heat.

    LDD has aworthy successor!

    Everything I looked at so far until today has just not been the right car to replace LDD, that, with her very sweet engine and five speed gear box plus a few other nice upgrades, made her a fantastic long distance cruiser, short distance sprinter and all round unique (well at least to me) car...

Interior presentable. Body does need some work -particularly doors and one wing. Chrome good. Have...

    search extended to any good V8

    Having looked around I would be happy to consider an auto as well. Colour less important than condition and overall state of the car, so if you are selling or know of someone who is PM me Thanks Neil

    In the market for a good 3500S

    The insurance assessor has declared LDD a write-off. I am in the market for a together 3500s - preferbaly Monza but others seriously considered. A webasto/britax roof would be a welcome bonus. Would love to be P6ing again in time for the national! Neil
